Isn't as popular? Of course, since nobody even knew it exists.

Personally I think a 1.6 MT, if it really exists, would be a hit among the younger male drivers.

Yup, FL was still black, until FLX...



FLX SE stopped production already? There really isn't that many on the road eh...
Most likely those who could afford the SE went on and bought the Persona instead.

I think that time the price gap between BLM and Persona quite large. sub 40k, it was either the BLM or a Viva.

Now that the price gap has narrowed, plus Persona was going with some pretty good discounts. But you'll never know, for the same price, ppl still go for turtle.

FLX SE rare is good...spesial ma But when I wanna sell I think I'm gonna cry

Congratz. Use your free time now to read up previous threads and learn!

Rain rain rain sleep

Yep. You asked me on the same day after I posted pictures of my car on the thread

Which Saga high spec got autocruise? And Saga has Proton/Lotus ride and handling just the same. Difference is, Saga is taller than the Persona, so it is naturally less stable.

Jackal mentioned the throttle lag more severe in the FLX than the Persona, that is due to the CVT's rubber band effect (step on pedal, RPM goes up, but speed climbs slowly.)

Ah ok. My mistake.

That too.

It's just my balls are always done in by the ride height first before worrying about the suspension setup.

Same.

Same as what trent999 said, except more torque and higher top speed. Bewarned, I believe that the 1.6 FLX has a harsher ride than the 1.3 FLX or the Persona, so some may not like it especially if you are ferrying young kids with the car.

Yes, Saga's CVT can be a b1tch to drive at speeds <20km/h, for example when doing 3 point turns in tight spots, I often only release the brakes and let the car roll, because I'm afraid if I press the throttle the car will jerk forward and hit something. But once you are cruising, the power delivery is smooth and immediate.

If you are looking for comfort and stability, Persona is the obvious choice. If you want something fun to drive while still serviceable as a family car, then the Saga is decent enough. Although both sport the 1.6 Campro, the Saga is about 150-200kg lighter and has slightly higher torque (but lower hp), so it drives much zippier.

Yep, the Persona is better proportioned for stability (lower and wider). Plus, the seats are also lower, I believe, leading to less lean being felt by the passenger. In the Saga, even if the car roll less than the Waja, I feel myself leaning more during turns.

So far, the Saga is the tallest sedan I have ever driven.

Added on March 20, 2012, 9:20 amThe jerking is when you press lightly on the throttle, the car hardly responses. Then you press a bit more the car suddenly lunges forward. It's nothing serious, just annoying at times and needs some getting used to. Once you learn to control your throttle, it'll be less of an issue.

Masuk 3-2-L?

Generally, powertrain components (engine and CVT), 3 years or 100k km.

The rest, 1 year. Power window, lifetime.

Both cars have no major issues, is all down to your preference because they cater to different buyers. Do you want performance? comfort? handling? features? FC? etc. etc. These are all questions that you need to ask yourself.

Take out your manual and whack them on the head with it.

It is clearly stated in the manual.

H-line Persona got more than good handling. Got autocruise, read disc brake, remote boot release. All those sissy shet

Foot rest
put a brick there, problem solved!

Air cond blower at leg area (Aussie S16 has this!!!)
Buy those cheap USB fan, USB to 12v socket converter, stick fan underneath steering column.

Better soundproofing (like in Persona)
earplugs!

Haha, when I bought it was either Inspira or the Saga, completely skipped the Persona

By buying a Saga, I can save the money to buy a house / P321a / conti car later
